Blog: Trip to Mumbai for 2 days
Tags: flag-in Erasmus blog Mumbai, Mumbai, India

Day 1, 2nd July 2016

I woke up early in the morning around 5am to get ready and packed my bag. It was two days trip only so i didnt took much weight on my shoulders. I have small travelling shoulder bag, i choose that bag for this journey.

Some tips for packing

  • Choose a perfect bag. Bag is going to be your best companion during whole trip, so it should be chose properly. Choose light, strong, and comfi bag with enough pockets to fill all of your amenities and clothes.
  • If you're constant traveller but you roam alot with your luggage then you should choose double trap backpack (Rucksack), and if you're contant traveller for business purpose, stays alot in hotels and seminars ideal bag for you is trolly bag, which keep your clothes and documents in proper position without any damage or wrinkles.
  • Pack your bag according to your travel duration. Do Not take too much luggage for few days travel.
  • Choose "use and throw" stuff like small tooth paste, cheap laundry bags, bathing amenities, etc. Stuff you can throw away if you don't have any use of it without any regret.
  • A good pair of footwears. Believe this does make a whole lot of difference on your travel experience. Footwear must be travel comfi.
  • Definately sunglasses if it is tropical sunny place.
  • Check all your tickets, and other passes or other important documents which are necessary for your travel.
  • Choose your clothes according to the purpose and location of yoylur travel. People sometimes forget this and end up in very bad situation. Going for business purpose, choose official formal clothes, but according to the weather of that country. Same for other travelers, going to sunny beach city then you don't wann bring jackets and sweatshirts there. Choose your clothes wisely.

So this are some point i wanted to suggest you guys. now i was finished with my very less stuff packing, i was ready to go. Weather was very cloudy, rain could come anytime so i took my rain jacket too. I reached on train station exactly before 30 mins of my train time. My friend was already in train coming from his town. As i was waiting, they announced train was 30 mins late due to heavy rain, guy it is very boring to wait for train on railways station, you always finish half of phone battery playing games. Train arrived, i went to my seat, met my friend and the journey begain.

There are few pictures of train journey, i will upload here. About my first day in Mumbai i will write in next post when i'll finish the day.

Till then all the travelers, explorers, and street seekers be safe, travel safe and have fun.

Wise words
